Man dies after eating roaches...

[The Snark]

Just to rub it in. For all the Guiness aspiring object consumption people. An odd thing can occur. The involuntary muscular contraction referred to a ejection vomiting, combined with esophageal (often 'nutcracker') spasms and the spasmed gasp of air. In simplified if gross terms, you barf into your lungs. Please consider the possibility before mass consumption of crud.

Spines on the roaches legs are pretty sharp, could easily get caught in your throat or something especially larger species.
